Get to know....ME. :)

I was tagged by Angie via e-mail. So, I thought it would be fun to post it here for everyone to read. I know I have been a little behind in posting, I am trying to get caught up. We've been super busy!!

( ) Gone on a blind date – Nope, I knew all of my beaus.

(x) Skipped school – With my boyfriend in High School, we went to the mall. My mom gave me permission to do it, too.

( ) Watched someone die – Thankfully, no.

( ) Been to Canada – Close, but not quite across the border.

(x) Been to Mexico – I went with my church the Spring Break of my HS Senior year. We worked with a children’s home and did a VBS. Good memories.

(x) Been to Florida – Our family has a timeshare at Disney World. We try to go down there every 2 years, but it has been a while.

(x) Been on a plane – Too many times to recall.

(x) Been lost – When I was a kid, several times actually.

(x) Been on the opposite side of the country – I’ve been to all 4 corners of this country, and at least 30 states in between.

(x) Done something you told yourself you wouldn't – Skydiving in Australia. I didn’t think I would actually be able to do it.
